The basis of the show went to the historical evidence, the facts of the Turkish and world explorers of the time, as well as various short stories, novels. Therefore, the main book, in which filmed this show, do not exist. It presents a collection of historical facts from a variety of sources.

In a scenario is a difficult path Ukrainian beauty, full of intrigue,deceitand treachery behind the scenes, and not without alove interest. The main character's name was Nastya (according to other sources-Alexandra)Lisovskaya,but all over the world remember the name of it Roksolana. Still very young girl, she was captured by Crimean Tatars, after which it was brought to Istanbul, it repeatedly resold, until one day the Turkish Vizier gave it the Sultan Suleiman.

It seemed fate Nastya is obvious -it will all his life in the harem, but everything turned out differently. After she converted to Islam, she was named Hürrem. Its natural beauty, extraordinary wisdom help of a simple concubine become the beloved wife of Suleiman the Magnificent. Hürrem began to administer the real story.

Despite the fact that it is half the Turk for his father, though his whole life she spent in Germany, where her mother had been born, in addition Meriem always considered myself a German, because I was brought up in the German culture. From an early age she wanted to become an actress and learn the basics of acting in Hamburg. After a series Meriem gained wide popularity and his circle of admirers of her talent.

On the history oft he Ottoman Empire was written many books and a documentary films, but no one dared to remove something artistic and powerful in the style of the time, corresponding to the different historical facts, costumes of the time. This series gives viewers a great opportunity to plunge while back stage insidious mystery and intrigue, to experience the intensity of emotions inside, love the characters.
